-- changelog --
03-04-2003 (version 0.3-4 base, all mainmodules)
base:
- integrated translucency, can be de-activated with
"blocktrans=yes" bootoption. Fixed a few settings, on-the-fly
dpkg might actually work, needs some more testing (dpkg-db
problems). trans minimod will no longer be used.
- integrated openGL nvidia driver, can be activated with
xmodule=nvidia (maybe nv too?). Still has the openGL-rootonly
problem, but the driver is installed to harddisk. Might need to
run /morphix/makedevices.sh after installing, however. nvidia
minimod will no longer be used.
- integrated forceusb. This might be redundant however, as i've
integrated a few of the lkm that seem to cause the problems.
Use "forceusb=yes" to activate it.
- added a new kernel, based on the knoppix (2.4.20-xfs) kernel
but with extra lkm compiled in. Config, include/ and patches
are available on the mirror.
- fixed a number of symlink problems, occuring after installing.
- added a few extra resolutions for X. Seems to work without any
'virtual' resolution on my testpc's, however this might cause
problems. Feedback and tips are greatly appreciated, as always.
all mainmod's:
- installer has been updated, added a useful help, fixed the RAID
and scsi detection problems, however scsi hasn't fully been
tested. Added a fix for lilo, and should show a combobox when
there are multiple harddisks (this too has not been tested, anyone
want to sponsor me?
Light/Game installs redirect output to
/tmp/installer.log, not yet done for
Heavy/KDE. Paperclip-replacement has been included ![Wink](images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
- added a morphix-menu for all 4 of the current
mainmod's. HeavyGUI however has it in a drawer, updating the menus
seems to be too hard for mere mortals. Resolutionchanger does work
with GNOME. Added wlcardconfig, savesettings and mkpersistanthome
from KNOPPIX, but the latter havn't been tested a lot. Added a
networkconfiguration tool, fixes a few bugs in netcardconf and
detects the current settings and preforms selected interface
updates. Added a rootconsole for kde/light
- added a new default background, trying to get it to replace all
other wallpapers in M but this might not be the case everywhere.
- updated to sid, snapshot 27-03-2003
light:
- added balsa instead of sylpheed.
heavy:
- added grip, samba, cups
- added a new taskbar, you'll either love it or hate it.
kde:
- added kmail, knode, kppp. Updated to KDE 3.1.1 (?).
- changed default iconset, actually looks purty now.
- added a cups-(re)start item in morphix menu
- probably forgot a few changes, thats the problem with releasing
too often ![Smile](images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Hi Alextreme,
I have tried it and it's cool.... The only thing I've noticed is that in this version, X won't boot up unless I specifically specify the nvidia cheatcode, otherwise there is a full screen of X error and I get the # prompt. The resolution changer switches resolution but only virtually it seems, I have to scroll around the screen to see it all...
regards,
Jim

Does MORPHIX 3.4 remedy the xmod problems of 3.2? Remember, KNOPPIX 3.1 works in all my labs, but MORPHIX 3.2 (based on KNOPPIX 3.2?) doesn't.
One lab uses nv vanta (cheats: none, nvidia: yes) no problems.
Another lab uses ati rage128 (cheats: none, nvidia: no) no problems.
And the last lab uses nv geforce (cheats: tried them all, nividia: yes or no - no mater) no good (tons of xmod errrs)!
Regards,

Well, there are quite a few changes on the Xfree86 side, one of them is that i've attempted to add 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 resolutions for everyone. Was a nice try, but it only works for newer vidcards and detected monitors. I'll switch it back before the next release ![Wink](images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
And about the xmod problems: They might be fixed in 0.3-4, but as i don't have a vidcard with the same problem i wouldn't know :P Give it a try, if your problems still occur i could really use a number of files:
- everything in /etc/sysconfig
- a listing of lsmod
- your XF86Config-4 file
- a listing of lspci
I might release a fixed base-module without said problems, or i'll release the whole bunch over 2 weeks again. Thanks for giving it a try!
